Ah, pop music. You gotta love it. It’s upbeat, it’s fun, it’s catchy, it’s usually sung by incredibly attractive people- what more could you ask for? Well, sure- tends to lack in well-written or in-depth lyrics, and sometimes flirts with being too over-the-top, overproduced or…
If you had told me a year ago that I would buy, and much less enjoy, a Rihanna CD, I probably would have laughed in your face. I’ve never been much of a Rihanna fan; I found all of her radio singles (particularly Pon De…
I don’t know what started it exactly, but recently I’ve been having a pre-teen nostalgia kick. This, embarrassingly enough, means I’ve been listening non-stop to my favorite artists of the time- *NSYNC. I’m pretty sure my friends on Last.FM are going to delete me once…

Justin Timberlake has certainly got one hell of an ego. I guess it’s to be expected; after all, he spent most of his adolescence and early adult years being the idol of one of the world’s biggest boy bands. Still, his ladies man persona becomes…
It’s been eight years since Mandy Moore first appeared in the music scene. She debuted as just another young teen pop star; her first album amounted to nothing more than a dreadful collection of bubblegum pop, but still, I knew Moore had something about her…
